I’ve found it to be a little busy and overwhelming at times. It’s got style though.

On my 4th playthrough right now actually. Can’t wait for this sequel!

That’s too bad.

I like this list, but how is Diablo IV on there as the sole representation of an ARPG, it’s so bland.

WilfordGrimley,

I got back to Grim Dawn all the time.

I’m excited for Fangs of Asterkarn!

strongarm,

Yes it’s a great game and I would have liked to see it above D4, I would easily put Last Epoch and Path of Exile ahead too.

I always thought that Grim Dawn was no longer being developed on as the devs were working on a new game, but they keep pumping out patches and content.

Man these guys should try putting more effort into making the game rather than harrassing their employees.

Sounds great!

LifeOfChance, do gaming w Borderlands is failing already.

The movie feels like it was made after they picked the cast then curated it to the actors instead of the source material. I know everyone seems to like the cast choices but I genuinely think it’s the worst line up they could have done. The closet to acceptable would be jack black. I honestly don’t get why they wouldn’t just do the voice actor for him or find someone who is close to a perfect match.

I’ve got a home copy to watch tonight for free and I only have that because a friend sent it to me. I don’t even wanna pay the electricity to watch it.

jacksilver,

Who likes the casting choices? I think I’ve only heard criticism on the casting.

I never saw a single comment, be it from friends or online, praising the casting lmao.

blindsight, do gaming w For a belated celebration of Tetris' 40th birthday, here's a highly partisan look back at Tetris DS

I had completely forgotten about the quest mode and tetronimo ball mode.

I’ve long-ago lost (or sold, maybe?) all my original DS stuff, but it’s nice how cheap and easy it is to buy a used DSi/DS Lite and then get a flash cart or soft mod. I should pull it out and play it again. Highly recommended as a console; the DS has lots of timeless games.

Katana314, do games w Devs should not be "forced to run on a treadmill until their mental or physical health breaks", says publisher of Manor Lords, citing how gamers seem to be trained to expect endless content work now

I felt this way about Back 4 Blood. The game came out, it was genuinely fun and had a good amount of content, and they added DLC that expanded the game while also not ruining things for anyone who hasn’t installed it.

But there was an unending cry from gamers that it was getting “abandoned”. You can still gather 4 players, or fewer with bots, and have a good time. It’s a different appeal from Left 4 Dead with the card system, and that was fine to me.

Ab_intra,
@Ab_intra@lemmy.world avatar

Agreed. I think it was an OK game but that doesn’t mean that the devs should work to their death to make it totally what I or other people think it should be.

Faaaantastic! This actually could be pretty dope.

VinesNFluff, do gaming w Mod support in Baldur's Gate 3 will be final handover moment to players, says Larian CEO

I guess this means I’ll finally get to actually play it

My playthrough on release got aborted midway through act 3 because I was using mods before official support and the constant updating and mod breaking eventually destroyed my savefile.

Tronn4, do gaming w Why the gradual death of the console exclusive makes business sense

Can someone translate this to Nintendo?

MrScottyTay,

Nintendo are an anomaly though, they’re not struggling financially and when they do the higher ups take a cut so everything else stays business as normal for the most part and they just keep trucking along comfortably

I think they’re slowly losing the goodwill of its customers with the decline of their hardware (and to a lesser extent software) quality and refusal to have easy access to its catalog of older games. Their insistence on taking legal action against their fanbase ranging from pirates to Smash Bros Melee tournament enthusiasts, and YouTubers who like to feature their games has personally turned me off from their offerings. Sure they may have yet another amazing Zelda or Mario game in their next gen console but it’ll be a lot easier to ignore when I already have a huge backlog of games in PC.

The vast majority of Nintendo customers doesn’t care about graphics and will happily buy a new 80€ controller every year. They are pretty resistant to negative elements, as they are very depending on Nintendo for delivering that special feeling no other on the market gives them. I don’t even blame them on that, it sadly just is a self absorbing construct. Nintendo doesn’t have to improve if fans buy 20 years old emulator ports for 80 bucks and the fans won’t stop buying it because it’s Nintendo, their childhood. I have a Switch myself and love the innovative controls and also am guilty to pay for a year of NSO premium just to play that one game on emulator. Sure I could’ve hacked my switch, but on the other hand it’s time investment to do so and I can’t bother.

NewAgeRetroHippie96,

Yeah, big doubt. Doesn’t matter to me that I own 1000+ games on Steam and have countless games I can play, and want to buy from all sorts of genres and companies. Does not matter, at all. Upon Switch 2, or the next Mario/Zelda/Metroid/Smash/Kart/whatever. I’m buying. Instantly. Immediately. Hell I’m preordering. Don’t care. Nintendo games are like nothing else on the market. Sure there’s competitors trying to do what they do. But absolutely nobody, actually does it like they do.

I have zero concerns about digital ownership, or them not releasing their old catalog. Because it does not matter. They are the most emulatable game makers on the planet. I’ll always have access to my old games whenever I want. So all that matters is their newest games on their newest console. I get that’s a super unpopular take among hardcore gamers. But my whole life, Nintendo games have been the ones to deliver what is fun to me 99/100.

mnemonicmonkeys,

Found the bootlicker

mindbleach,

Nintendo is a toy company. They make incomparable products to avoid direct competition. It’s their “blue ocean strategy.”

They also crank out first-party titles that tend to be fun prototypes reskinned to a handful of popular franchises.

The key word is fun. Not the ridiculous grind many games have turned into.
